Matlock Views, Matlock

Matlock Views is a spacious four-bedroom townhouse just a quarter mile from Matlock in the Peak District. This deceptively large property sleeps eight guests and offers stunning views across the Derbyshire countryside. From the outside it looks modest, but step inside and you'll discover a modern, well-equipped holiday home that previous guests consistently rate as spotlessly clean.

Located on a hillside (yes, it's a bit steep - your calves will thank you later), the property gives you easy access to the Peak District National Park. Matlock itself has plenty of independent shops, cafés and pubs within walking distance. The town centre is just a 5-minute stroll away, making those post-pub wobbles back home perfectly manageable. After a day exploring, you can soak your tired muscles in the private hot tub while enjoying those gorgeous views.

The accommodation features four bedrooms including a king-size with zip/link beds, a double with en-suite and a single with pull-out bed. There's a family bathroom with separate shower and bath, plus the en-suite shower room. The heart of the home is the open-plan living area with fully-equipped kitchen, dining space and comfortable sitting area, perfect for evening drinks before hitting that hot tub.

Nearby attractions include Gullivers Kingdom (2 miles), Heights of Abraham with its cable cars and caverns, Matlock Mining Museum, historic Bakewell town and the magnificent Chatsworth House and Gardens. All these are within easy driving distance, giving you plenty of options for day trips.

Matlock Views is ideal for families or groups of friends wanting to explore the Peak District. With its combination of comfort, location and that all-important hot tub (which must be vacated by 10:30 PM - so save your skinny dipping for earlier), this property ticks all the boxes for a memorable Derbyshire break.
